This scientific essay is research for how and why exercises of power appear between teachers with different educations but also how much the identity and different experience in a human can affect it? Based on own self-experienced stories that took place in our workplaces for a couple of years ago our investigation in this essay is to look for possible causes for behaviors and situations that arise in the school system. Among other things, we will examine the impact that the school and the background of the leisure center have when it comes to the power relations that we see exist in the school. We will try to understand how it affects our assignment as a leisure center teacher in the compulsory school and what consequences it has for our room for maneuver. We will also reflect and investigate how we by ourselves could bridge the gap that can arise between leisure center teachers and school/subject teachers. The purpose of seeking a deeper understanding of this is also to be able to create a broader knowledge about the struggle for power and status we can see exists between the school and the leisure center. An important part of this essay is to see if it`s the different leadership and teacher roles that exist in the school system that govern power and status, or if it may be the human identity that is the most decisive for how it appears. With the help of Aristotle's theories of knowledge and Michel Foucault's theories of power, we will examine this in the hope of a deeper understanding of the situations that we after-school teachers in school can end up in and knowledge of how these can be understood from different points of view.
